CROSS CABLE




  1. To get yourself  into the starting position , place the pulleys on a high position (above your head) select the resistance to be used and hold the pulleys in each head .
  2. Step forward in front of an imaginary straight line between both pulleys while pulling your arms together in front of you . Your torso should have a small forward bend from the waist . This will be starting position .
  3. With a slight bend on your elbows in order to prevent stress at the biceps tendon , extend your arms to the side (straight out at both sides ) in a wide arc until you feel a stretch on your chest . Breathe in as you perform this portion of movement .
  4. Return your arms back to the  starting position as you breath out . Make sure to use the same arc of motion used to lower the weights .
  5. Hold for a second at the starting position and repeat the movement for the prescribed amount of repetitions .
